I thought Earl Grey was flavored with the French citrus, bergamot? Well, the rind oil.

Whereas, I think it's Sweden that is ~#2 world consumer of cardamom, behind India.

It’s made with cardamon, too.
Guess it depends on the quality, origin.

I buy the cheap tea to clear the pallet after my morning coffee and homemade, rustic, toasted bread with butter and cheese.

100 tagless bags of China black from Kroger for $1.19.
Half the fun of early retirement is squeezing a penny until old Abe reveals his true nature. Ha!
